	Some Egregores can interact with ''''corporeal reality'''' to a limited degree by contacting individuals through joined dreams or telepathic thoughts. A common occurrence connected to such events are Egregores influencing people to create objects in reality directly linked to them with the purpose of recruiting more 'members'. Such interactions are the most common way that the existence of Egregores has discovered and documented.

Because of their background as living beings that simply 'connect' with the Oneirosphere, they tend to have significantly more limitations and disadvantages within the Oneirosphere than ''''Non-Corporeals''''. 'Dying' before waking up (experiences in one's own dreamscape tend to 'automatically' do this, but is much less reliable on other dreamscapes) is very dangerous for Corporeals, generally causing their subconscious to either be destroyed or subsumed into the neural network of the dreamscape they have connected to, being the basis of involuntary Egregore expansion.
